do I have this right? Donald Trump is just going to crash the world economy every three months — and then pretend to save it, over and over, while his cronies rake in untold billions on his shameless market manipulation, is that it? fucking hell

I just saw our Treasury Sec talk about bad actors .... if there was an Oscar to give out for bad acting it would go to Trump and his administration in supporting roles.
Yes, Jeff. That sounds about right. But I think his goonies will also be multi-tasking while he is busily golfing, thinking of even more schemes to line the master’s pockets, turn back democracy throughout the world, and generally making average Americans less safe, secure and at ease in the world.
he wants you to buy his book art of the deal so you know what he is doing
he wants you to buy his watch to know what time he is doing it
he wants you to buy his shoes
I just added the shoes, buy them and run like fuck to escape the lunacy of America
Important to note: he hasn't even really saved shit, the 10% global tariff is still the highest average tariff rate in the world and the 125% tariff on China could still explode the global economy
Yep, that's about right. Rule by chaos, keep the markets in turmoil, and let his richest donors get richer as they buy low and sell high every time he either announces a tariff or "pauses" it. It's insider trading.
So this morning he tells his cronies to BUY low. And three hours later he backs off the tariffs and the market goes nuts. I know nothing about the stock market but even I can see this looks like a scam. How many times does he get to do this?
This time, foreign countries had him by the short hairs as they were dumping our US treasuries overnight big time. They caught the "bankruptcy king" by surprise. Where are your tariffs now Mr. big time?
It's worse too because Trump just imposed the first 10 percent federal sales tax on all Americans. We the people of America will pay tribute to Trump and his ever changing "tariff" whims.
There must be some way for those in Wall St. City of London, Frankfurt etc to give him the finger.
He's manipulating markets, surely the markets can find a way to fuck him over.
Yes, and more yes. The Orange Shitweasel wants to show that he is the Knight in Shining Armor, so things have to get septic-tank shitty and then he will come in and SAVE US ALL! (Except for POC). The rest of us will be eternally grateful and glad to kiss his cellulite-riddled ass.
What I cannot understand is that the rest of the world leaders accepting anything president felon says or does. I wish they were more like Canada and China and impose reciprocal tariffs and refuse to relent until he stops this nonsense. Neutralizing his power of the tariffs.
Brit here. I can't tell you how tired we are of the US psychodrama. We're sick of hearing the lies & conspiracy theories. The 1 thing you need to know is that the EU formed to prevent another war by establishing a community united by principles of decency & international law.
There's a "fun" game my older brothers used to play with me growing up in the 70s.
As we walked along the street, they would suddenly grab me , pushing me towards oncoming traffic while simultaneously pulling me away from the traffic and proclaiming "saved your life"
I suspect Trump played it too
There was another version of it where if someone was looking over a high drop, top of a flight of stairs, over a cliff edge, etc.
The same push/pull action was employed, and the same shout "saved your life!"
What always amazes me about Trump and his hyenas is that it's one thing to criminally indulge yourself but they could at least TRY to look smart and capable while doing it...tariffs on an island of penguins?!?! A chart on cardboard with no sorting and nonsensical numbers?
Yup. Creating a massive unnecessary problem, solve it halfway and receive praise from maga herd for being a genius problem solver, wait a while and create a new stupid problem. I see a pattern here.
it could be also we are giving him too much credit and it is that the world is not backing down from his tariffs ... the inner circle panicks and he folds....
This was a trillion dollar scam on the American people. I want to know which administration officials were buying all morning so I know who needs to go to jail.
Here’s the thing they can’t keep these plans secret so all we have to do is subscribe to his newsletter or whatever the fuck and we can all just get in on these trades. It’s basically socialism just with a couple extra steps.
Until every single big business bows down and kisses his ring and buys into his crypto based sovereign wealth fund. Senator Chris Murphy, it’s essentially a mafia shakedown to get every single billionaire/oligarch in this country to bend the knee.
I sure don't believe 75 countries were lined up to "deal" with Fotus. I think DT folded, plain & simple. Would love to get him in a poker game. Just lies & he's going to take credit for what exactly ? Trump doesn't know what he's doing.
Yes. And also iPhones will cost 3.5K from now on because China will never stop being pissed off with us. I can’t blame them, really, this is hopelessly stupid.
That's pretty much how his niece describes his fucked up psychological script, yes.
I can't imagine how frustrating it must be when you tried to warn the cunts who voted for the nonce, even worse than with the Starver regime in 🇬🇧
💯 and then after everyone is exhausted and no one wants our bonds and the US$ is worthless, the US will go on the crypto standard as our currency. Floated, run and managed by the Trump crime family
Yep—massive insider trading. Corruption in plain sight “at levels we have never seen before” to borrow the man-child’s phrase. The billionaires not in on the grift clearly have had enough and turned on him
And the only people who could do anything about it are Congress, who think the sun shines out of his ass and doubtless some of his biggest supporters and enablers are in on it.
Sounds like it!! He has so many haters now. How can companies run on tariffs one moment & then just switch to a 90 day pause & then full tariffs again????????
That's just a sideline, he also makes deals for carve out tariff exemptions... Apple, Nvidia, Dell, and Others Get a Tariffs Exemption Under New Rules: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/ar-AA1CNvQ6
Don't forget all the other things be accomplished:
1. China no longer will copy us in secret.
2. China will flood foreign markets with our designs.
3. Pushing our former friends into the arms of china.
4. Forcing untold small businesses to go under.
This is insanity. Of course Trump insiders, including his family, know exactly when he is going to “pause” the tariffs, so they can load up on stock and make a fortune as the market responds. Then he’ll repeat this over and over again. Meanwhile, the U.S. has lost all credibility.
This could very well be a Plan B. Since his attempted tariff extortion wasn't working, he figured he might as well make a quick buck from his failure by doing something illegal, and then announce he's made the greatest deal in the Universe. He trashed our economy on a bet he could not lose.

China and trump trading 100% tariffs and the market goes up at open?
The red-cap wearing brigade applauds his genius
since the other world leaders are, EACH of them, about 100 times smarter than trump...
he wants you to buy his book art of the deal so you know what he is doing
he wants you to buy his watch to know what time he is doing it
he wants you to buy his shoes

Disgusting.
One point : China controls 70% of the world's rare earth minerals. Kiss that import market goodbye.
and its illegal but scotus gave him immunity
Asking for a psyched-up friend.
The rest of the world won’t tolerate this
Actually it’s probably all of them.
All it takes is one.
Just saying.

World: From what?
Trump: Me! It’s always about me!
If only we could still have confidence the SEC/FBI/DOJ etc would still police insider trading, market manipulation and abuse of public office

Broligarchs made a ton of money today.
Rumors have existed for a few days.
(sorry / not sorry)

Nothing against factory workers.. 1/2
He throws out bird crumbs to work us into a frenzy and too many only concentrate on one thing at a time.
" only I can save it" he'll be telling the truth.
